"Killing? Why should I kill?"
Lu Bu looked innocent: "Don't Zijing know that I'm here to welcome my bride this time? Why did Yuan Shu run away?"
Seeing that Lu Bu's shirt was still stained with the blood of an unknown unlucky guy, Lu Su couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth: Are you so ready to welcome the bride? I'm more polite than you when trying to steal a bride!
Lu Bu laughed and said, "Don't worry, for Zijing's sake I won't embarrass the people in the city!
What's more, I am a minister of the Han Dynasty? Does Zijing think that I am one of those ruthless thieves who commit murder?
Zilong, issue a notice to appease the people! Ziyi, inform the entire army that only those who attempt to resist will be killed. If anyone kills innocent people indiscriminately and takes the opportunity to rob people, military law will be enforced! "
Lu Su then breathed a sigh of relief: "Please invite Marquis Wen to rest in the government office."
Lu Bu led Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others into the main hall. They saw the mess inside and couldn't help but frown.
Lu Su smiled awkwardly and explained: "Yuan Shu and the others left in a hurry, so it was a bit messy.
Someone was planning to set fire to the government office, but I stopped him with all my strength..."
Lu Bu patted Lu Su on the shoulder and said, "Zijing is determined! If we can defeat Shouchun this time, Zijing should be the first to take credit!"
Lu Su hurriedly waved his hands and said: "I don't dare take it! How can I get any credit?
Even if I don't write to Marquis Wen, Cao Cao will get the news sooner or later that Yuan Shu has sent troops to attack Changyi, and he will inevitably mobilize his troops to return reinforcements. Naturally, Marquis Wen also knew about it. "
Lu Bu said with a smile: "Zijing doesn't have to be humble, you are the first to do it! Last time you said you were unwilling to leave Dingyuan, so how about you being the governor of Shouchun?"
Lu Su wanted to refuse, but Lu Bu said: "Zijing, please listen to me. In fact, I originally wanted to develop in Xuzhou safely.
However, Tao Qian couldn't tolerate me and joined forces with Yuan Shu to destroy me. I was forced to fight back.
Originally, I didn't want to plot Yangzhou, but Jiujiang is adjacent to Xiapi Guangling, and there is no danger to defend in between.
If Yuan Shu regains his breath and wants to take revenge on me in the future, war will inevitably happen again.
So I had to reluctantly include Jiujiang.
I hope that Zijing can use your talents to benefit the people of this area and save the people of Jiujiang from suffering from disasters! "
Having said this, Lu Bu stood up and bowed to the ground.
Lu Su hurriedly stood up and returned the courtesy: "Marquis Wen has offended Lu Su, I am so ashamed of myself!"
In fact, Lu Su didn't understand why he told Lu Bu about Yuan Shu's attack on Cao Cao.
Maybe it's because I feel that compared to Yuan Shu, Lu Bu can be regarded as a wise master.
Now even if Lu Bu did not accept his destiny as the governor of Shouchun, the moment Shouchun was breached, he was already firmly tied to Lu Bu's chariot.
Seeing that Lu Su finally accepted the post of Shouchun governor, Lu Bu asked again: "In Zijing's opinion, where will Yuan Shu flee to?"
Lu Su pondered for a moment and then said: "Although Yuan Shu's main force is attacking Changyi, Shouchun has been lost now. If he goes north, Yuan Shu will be surrounded by Liu Biao, Cao Cao, and the Lord's family.
Therefore, I think Yuan Shu will not dare to go north to cross the Huai River, and will probably flee south.
Then he went south to Lujiang. Yuan Shu retreated to Shouchun due to his defeat by Liu Biao some time ago, so he borrowed grain from Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang.
Lu Kang verbally rejected Yuan Shu's request. Now that Yuan Shu was defeated and fled, he would definitely not dare to go to Hefei.
Now that his vitality is severely weakened, I guess he will cross the Yangtze River south to seek refuge with Zhou Xin, the prefect of Danyang. "
Lu Bu nodded and said: "I don't want to drive Yuan Shu away, but I still want Zilong and Ziyi to drive him to the south of the Yangtze River to prevent him from preying on the people of Jiujiang again.
In addition, I will let Zhang Yang lead the Guangling Prefect, and the navy will be trained by the river.
If there are generals who are good at water warfare and craftsmen who can build big ships, Zijing, please pay more attention to me.
I love talents. As long as you have real talents and are willing to join me, I will never treat you badly! "
Lu Su nodded in agreement.
Lu Bu then said: "In addition, I want to exempt the people of Jiujiang from paying taxes for one year. I wonder what you think of it?"
Lu Su was very excited after hearing this: "My lord loves the people so much, he will definitely be loved by the people!"
Lu Bu smiled slightly and waved his hands and said: "The ugly words are ahead, what I want to exempt is the entire Jiujiang tax!
If there are squire clans who dare to collect taxes under various names, don't blame me for being rude! "
Lu Su hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely prevent such things from happening!"
"This is best." Lu Bu said, stood up and stretched, "Yuan Shu escaped this time. I heard he didn't have time to take his family with him?"
"Yes, the women are all in the back house..." Lu Su said truthfully.
"Female family members..." Lu Bu said with a serious face: "With such a commotion, the women's family members must be frightened, right? Let me comfort them!"
"My lord, please..." Lu Su hesitated for a moment before making a gesture of invitation to Lu Bu.
After all, in these days, it is not new for the strong to beat the weak away and then inherit their property, wives and daughters.
Lu Bu only took two steps and then stopped and said, "There must be family members of Yuan Shu's other generals in Shouchun City, right?
I bothered Zijing to comfort them on my behalf, saying that I, Lu Bu, was only targeting Yuan Shu and would not embarrass them.
In addition, if Ji Ling and Zhang Xun are also in Shouchun, please tell them that the two generals are fine in Pengcheng now.
In a few days, I will tell people to tell the families of the two generals to reunite in Pengcheng, so that they don't have to worry. "
"Here." Lu Su agreed and went out.
When he came to the inner house, he saw a group of warblers huddled together and looking at him in horror. Lu Bu suddenly had an illusion: he was like a large weasel entering the henhouse!
Yin coughed and said, "I am Lu Bu. I think all the ladies have heard of it, right?
Don't worry, I'm not a good... ahem, not a bad person!
I didn't mean to offend you, but since Yuan Shu took the initiative to send people to find me and said that he wanted to marry his beloved daughter to me as a concubine, I naturally took it seriously.
Unexpectedly, there would be nothing more to come after he left, and I was impatient, so I had no choice but to shamelessly come to Shouchun to pick up the bride in person.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu was so rude. Not only did he not open the door for me, he even hit me!
I had no choice but to use some means to get into the city, but he was so shy that he refused to see me, so he left you and ran away!
This is not what I wanted! But after all, it has something to do with me!
But don’t worry, I am here to officially announce: I will raise Yuan Shu’s wife and daughter! Don't worry about it! "
Lu Bu's impassioned speech didn't seem to be able to appease the hearts of the girls, and all of them looked at him with more horror!
In desperation, Lu Bu had no choice but to ask again: "But I don't know which one is Yuan Shu's daughter?"
